Great news!  We have managed to relaunch our xml feeds through the new version of the Brightcove player. Brightcove is a video player provider that is part owned by Sky News backer News Corp. Brightcove recently integrated with the Times and other News Corp publications as the new video delivery system. The recent upgrade from Version 2 to Version 3 meant we had to do some reprogramming on our side. Due to our recent success we are now in discussion to launch this Brightcove service throughout our European territories and Brightcove see us as an important content partner going forward. This is great news and we are all really excited at play about this exciting step forward.

Since the relaunch of our feed:
• We have updated the Scottish Tv (STV.tv) with all the latest content
• We have just signed a contract with the Guardian to start using our feeds instead of our normal embed player. This will mean that all their journalists and editors will have access to our library of trailers, and eventually all the other EPK material we plan on syndicating on your behalf.
• The Times have also implemented the feed

In a statement from Brightcove CEO Jeremy Allaire.

“Times Online can now take advantage of Brightcove 3, our next-generation platform, to help deepen engagement with their 16 million online readers, expand online advertising opportunities and broaden their reach across the web”.

So we are looking to develop lots of traffic with this interesting business development opportunity. We are now working on other exciting integration and our contacts within Brightcove in the UK are actively helping us in this process of setting up trials with: 1. Hearst Digital
2. Bauer Group
3. Northecliffe Media (Daily Mail)
4. Conde Nast 5. Film4 and Channel 4

So far the response has been really excellent and we are expecting to have several new partners on board soon.
